How much do hauling jobs pay per hour?

As of Jul 11, 2026, the average hourly pay for hauling in the United States is $49.34, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $21.88 and $61.78 per hour, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is hauling?

Hauling refers to the process of transporting goods, materials, or debris from one location to another, typically using trucks, trailers, or other large vehicles. Hauling services are commonly used in industries such as construction, waste management, landscaping, and moving. Professionals in this field are responsible for loading, securing, and delivering items safely and efficiently. Hauling can involve transporting anything from construction materials and equipment to household items or junk removal.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in a hauling job, and why are they important?

To thrive in a hauling role, you need a valid commercial driver’s license (CDL), good driving record, and knowledge of safety regulations for transporting goods. Familiarity with GPS navigation systems, electronic logging devices (ELDs), and basic vehicle maintenance tools is typically required. Strong time management, communication skills, and reliability help you coordinate with clients and ensure timely deliveries. These competencies are crucial for safe, efficient transportation and maintaining client satisfaction in a demanding logistics environment.

What is the difference between Hauling vs Truck Driver?

AspectHaulingTruck Driver
CredentialsCommercial driver's license (CDL) often requiredCommercial driver's license (CDL) required
Work EnvironmentLoading, transporting, and unloading goods, often short to medium distancesDriving trucks over various distances, including long hauls
Industry UsageUsed across logistics, construction, waste managementPrimarily in freight, logistics, and transportation industries
Search & Comparison IntentPeople compare hauling jobs with truck driving roles due to similar credentials and work settings

Hauling involves transporting goods, often over short distances, and may include loading and unloading. Truck drivers typically operate large vehicles over longer distances, including interstate routes. Both roles require a CDL and are integral to logistics and transportation industries, but they differ mainly in scope and distance traveled.

What are some common challenges faced by professionals in hauling, and how can new hires prepare for them?

Professionals in hauling often encounter challenges such as navigating heavy traffic, adhering to strict delivery schedules, and handling unexpected vehicle maintenance issues. New hires can prepare by familiarizing themselves with route planning software, maintaining effective communication with dispatchers, and staying up to date on safety protocols and vehicle inspections. Building strong time-management skills and developing a proactive approach to problem-solving will help ensure a smoother transition into the role and contribute to long-term success.

What Are Different Types of Hauling Jobs?

Some of the different types of hauling jobs include freight haulers, commercial haulers, trash haulers, haulers who transport equipment or machinery, and haulers who transport livestock or other agricultural products. Many of these jobs have more specialized responsibilities than just general trucking duties. For example, as a commercial hauler, you may be responsible for the transport of a single type of good, such as cars or shipments for a specific company. You must know how to handle these specific pieces of freight to deliver them safely and efficiently. You can also find jobs hauling hazardous materials, a career in which you need strict certifications.

Job description

Heavy Haul Driver | Olinger Heavy Hauling

Move the Unmovable.

At Olinger Heavy Hauling, we don’t just move freight; we move the infrastructure of the future. From massive industrial transformers to the blades of wind turbines, our drivers are the elite pilots of the highway.

We are looking for a Heavy Haul Driver who brings more than just a CDL to the table. We need a precision specialist who thrives on the technical challenge of 13-axle configurations and the responsibility of hauling high-value, over-dimensional cargo. If you’re a veteran of the road who prides yourself on a "zero-incident" reputation, we want you behind the wheel.

The Mission

As an Olinger Driver, you’ll operate top-tier equipment (RGNs, lowboys, and steerable trailers) to deliver the massive components that keep the country running. This isn’t "point A to point B" trucking—it’s a high-stakes coordination of engineering, navigation, and skill.

Your Core Responsibilities

  • Precision Operation: Masterfully maneuver heavy-duty rigs with 6 to 13+ axles through complex routes.
  • Elite Load Securement: Expertly apply chains, binders, and lashing techniques to ensure "bulletproof" securement of oversized equipment.
  • Strategic Navigation: Execute permitted routes with surgical precision, staying clear of weight-restricted bridges and low-clearance obstacles.
  • Command & Control: Lead the convoy by maintaining seamless communication with dispatch, pilot cars, and law enforcement.
  • Total Compliance: Navigate the paperwork as well as the road—managing ELDs, HOS, and specialized overweight permits.

What You Bring to the Rig

  • The Credentials: A valid Class A CDL with a pristine driving record.
  • The Experience: 3–5+ years of Class A experience, with at least 1–2 years specifically in Heavy Haul or Oversized freight.
  • The Gear Knowledge: You’re a pro with Removable Goosenecks (RGN), lowboys, step-decks, and stretch trailers.
  • The Grit: Physical stamina to handle 100-lb chains and binders in whatever weather the road throws at you.
  • The Edge (Preferred): TWIC card or WITPAC certification is a major plus.

Life on the Road

  • Travel: Our projects take us across the map. Expect OTR trips that may keep you out for a week or more at a time.
  • Schedule: Heavy haul doesn't always follow a 9-to-5. Flexibility for weekends or project-specific timelines is essential.
  • Culture: We value safety over speed. At Olinger, we give you the tools and the time to do the job right.

Ready to level up your career? If you have the technical skill and the professional discipline to join the Olinger team, apply today.

Company Description

Since 1962, Olinger Heavy Hauling has been Kansas City’s premier choice for machinery moving, industrial rigging, and specialized heavy hauling. We pride ourselves on a "GET IT DONE" family culture that delivers turn-key solutions for oversized, heavy, and complex industrial projects.
Our fleet is unique—we operate heavy-duty semi-tractors, a wide variety of specialized trailers (ranging up to massive 13-axle setups), forklifts, and rigging cranes. Because our equipment is so specialized, we don’t expect you to know everything on day one. We are looking for someone with solid basic mechanical skills who is eager to learn from the best in the business.
